Google search from the address bar (IE 6.0)

In TweakuiXP/Internet Explorer/Search there is a feature to allow you create a "shortcut" word that when typed in the Address Bar of IE it will invoke that particular search engine with the results of your search criteria. For example, on my own XP machine, I created one for Google, by using go as my "shortcut" key. So that now if I would type in the IE Address Bar: <font color=blue>go Woody's Lounge</font color=blue> and hit "Enter", Google will open with the all the results for "Woody's Lounge".

The problem is on my other XP machine. This doesn't want to work???? Any ideas why it doesn't? and/or how can I get it to work as it should? <img src=/S/grin.gif border=0 alt=grin width=15 height=15>

MaryJ -

That is a sweet function. Do you know if this tip is documented anywhere (other than here <img src=/S/smile.gif border=0 alt=smile width=15 height=15>)? I've never seen mention of it. While I was at it, I created a couple more for myself for dictionary and thesaurus lookups at m-w.com (in case anyone is interested):
